1 Curriculum Guide Counting Crows by Kathi Appelt Illustrated by Rob Dunlavey One, two, three crows in a tree. THESE CROWS ARE HUNGRY and their numbers grow as they count themselves and the tasty snacks they devour. Twelve counting crows enjoy twelve chewy chips and twelve slimy snails, Children in grades K-2 will love counting these jaunty crows in their eye-catching red-and-white knows a thing or two about hungry crows and brings these snacking bandits to life with her pitchperfect rhyme and kid-pleasing phrasing. Writing a fresh counting rhyme calls for the poet to hear the numbers in a new way, and that s just what Appelt has done. She tweaks sequences, varies rhythms, and punctuates her lines with piquant sound words. Publishers Weekly, starred review Children can caw and cack, cackle and grack, along with the crows, following the rhyming text throughout.... Something to crow about! Booklist, starred review This is a real counting fest, as not only the crows, but the food they collect berries, bugs and snacks are fodder for the counting game and for improving reading skills at the same time. Kirkus Reviews, starred review kathiappelt.com Common Core State Standards addressed by the activities in this guide are noted throughout.
